We Are Buffers, We Break Barriers: What If There Was Something Preventative We Could All Do?

Livestream
Thursday, April 25, 2024
1:00-3:00pm

Dr. Kolu

ASD is a risk factor for experiencing trauma and puts children at risk for experiencing additional risk factors like foster care. Unique risks present for the population sharing both ASD and adverse childhood experiences (ACES), but few professionals are fluent in preventing the harms related to ACES. This presentation provides an overview of the connection between ACES and subsequent medical and behavioral harms, then discusses specific buffers that research suggest can prevent these harms (as well as protect against later exposure)
 

Objectives:
1. Attendees will list four risk outcomes of ACES exposure on clients of behavioral sciences.
2. Attendees will describe the behavioral buffer that protects clients from the harms of trauma.
3. Attendees will identify six buffer areas that research suggests prevents harms related to trauma.
4. Attendees will identify a published tool to assist practitioners in adding programming to install buffers and solve barriers for individuals served by behavioral services
